Vengeance said:It would still pull the flag rod and flag itself lol. How do you think meteors get to earth in the first place? They get sucked in by earths gravitational pull. This can be the same with a flag on the moon.
Evaughn said:They stay heading towards earth, not swaying back and fourth you know what I mean. The flag would be pulled towards the Earth more while staying still than seeming to stay straight.

Vengeance said:Even a slight tug from earths gravity would make it wave.
Evaughn said:Gravity doesn't act as tugs since it's a constant.
Vengeance said:Another part of the moon landing hoax theory deals with the American flag. The picture that was sent back showed this flag fluttering as in a wind. Some believers in the moon landing hoax feel that this was proof that this picture had been taken on earth and not the result of a moon landing. The fact that the flag flutters in the wind when there is no wind on the moon could lend some degree of credibility to the belief that this was a hoax. However, experts, in an attempt to defend the landing against the moon landing hoax theory explained that a vacuum has no friction. On the moon things don't stop moving as quickly as they do on Earth, so when the astronauts got the flag attached to the surface and straightened, it stayed there longer than what we are accustomed to. Hence the picture was taken with the flag waving is proof that the moon landing hoax theory is incorrect.
Evaughn said:I always thought that the debate about the flag waving wasn't about when it was being put into the ground but rather when the astronaut walks by it and it looks like it waves, which it shouldn't in a vacuum.
Vengeance said:I have never even heard of that debate. The debate about the flag was it waving in the picture.

If you read my arguments, you'd know that I said nothing about the movement of the flag. The flag moved when they placed it into the ground. I'm not stupid. Gravity and the vacuum-like atmosphere has nothing to do with it.
Also, @"Vengeance", this entire thread is about the Apollo 11 mission. I believe we have been to the moon since. I don't believe we landed on the moon during the Space Race.
That's what each piece of evidence supports.
